Forgotten? by jakb

Forgotten?

Have you ever felt like this - left by the side of the road, forgotten? Once my son left his favorite friend, French Baby, in the Chicago airport and we didn’t realize it until we were back in Massachusetts. He was really sad...until I told him that French Baby had stayed in Chicago in order to go to college. So, maybe the story of this Pink Baby is: she asked her mom if she could have some quiet time just to watch the birds fly over this huge field, and her mom thought she was big enough to do it! So, here she is. Not lost or forgotten, after all - just having her first solo adventure!
Interesting

I like your background story - and nice job with your son's special one

It just kind of pulls at your heart, doesn't it? Good job of explaining French Baby's need to stay in Chicago.

Love the randomness. I love the narrative too. I found a toy left on our lawn several months back and while it tugged on my heart, I had to get a pic. but when I went outside, I was too late because it was gone! Mentioned it to my husband and he told me about that it’s not a kids but a dogs! Some lady walks her dog and he carries the stuffed animal with him! I’ve found it once more on the lawn and there it sat for a few days, until him and mom came back by, and then he picked it back up. I think it’s a wonderful find and I will not apply my tendency of anthropomorphism to it!

@elatedpixie Ha! Obviously I have a similar tendency! But I bet you’re right and this was a dog’s toy. I never considered that. (I hope French Baby didn’t become a dog toy in Chicago!)

That narrative is all kinds of wonderful! What a great find, terrific capture and delightful story. I shall now have to look at these finds differently as I come upon them!
